Now more then ever, it’s time we Refund our police and get rid of this ridiculous Bail Reform bill that has impacted not only District 26 but New York State. It’s important more then ever we elect some with common sense.

I am running to fight for New Yorkers' rights to medical freedom, bodily autonomy and informed consent;

to ensure a full range of true healthcare is available to all; to advocate for a robust and nurturing education for our children; to develop environmental policies that truly protect public health;

to end unconstitutional "government by decree" and guarantee our basic constitutional rights.
